## \*Note: this thread is only for Weezer fans. Weezer-bashers can start their own threads. \*\*This is not for entire songs, just snippets of verses that hang in your mind. Ooh wee ohh, I look just like Buddy Holly Oh, Oh, and you’re Mary Tyler Moore I don’t care what they say about us anyway I don’t care about that

## Crab if you wanna, she won’t be coming down

Love, barely alive in your arms, slave

Holy sweet goddamn, you left your cello in the basement  
I admired the golden stars and tried to play a tune  
Can’t believe how bad I suck, it’s true  
What could you possibly see  
in little ol’ three-chord me?

From the same song, “El Scorcho”:

> [@](#):
>
> Goddamn you half-Japanese girls  
> do it to me every time

It’s true, it’s true!

> [@](#):
>
> I asked you to go to the Green Day concert  
> You said you never heard of them  
> -How cool is that?-  
> So I went to your room and read your diary:  
> “watching Grunge leg-drop New-Jack through a press table…” and then my heart stopped:  
> “listening to Cio-Cio San fall in love all over again.”

(sigh) I’d feel the same way!

I can’t help my boogies they get out of control  
I know that you don’t care but I want you to know  
The knee-stocking flavor is a favorite treat  
Of men that don’t bother with the taste of a teat

Oh, come on and kick me  
Oh, come on and kick me  
Come on and kick me  
You’ve got your problems  
I’ve got my ass wipe  
You’ve got your big cheese  
I’ve got my hash pipe  
weird. just…weird.

You probably won’t believe this but my mother was actually considering naming me “Weezer” when I was born (circa 1978). I didn’t find out until their first hit came out, after watching the video on MTV (No, not MTV2, there actually used to be videos on MTV.) Mom gets up and says: “I was thinking about naming you Weezer before you were born.” and then just nonchalantly walks into the kitchen to start making dinner. You don’t drop that kind of bomb on someone without a stiff drink.

How stupid is it? I can’t talk about it  
I gotta sing about it and make a record of my life  
(How stupid is it? Won’t you give me a minute  
Just come up to me and say hello to my heart) How stupid is it?  
For all I know you want me too and maybe you just don’t know what to do or maybe you’re scared to say: “I’m falling for you”  
I wish I could get my head out of the sand ‘cuz I think we’d make a good team  
and you would keep my fingernails clean  
but that’s just a stupid dream that I won’t realize  
‘cuz I can’t even look in your eyes without shakin’, and I ain’t fakin’  
I’ll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon.

Dang, I just realized…

I don’t own **Pinkerton**.

Perhaps that’s why I don’t recognize some of these gems?
